This Peony Garden Suite, Best Wishes card is a new favorite. I love the 3D peony as well as the combined script and block greetings I added with the Well Said stamp set and Well Written dies.
I find myself reaching for the Peony Garden Suite bundle with the Prized Peony stamps and Peony dies a lot lately. And if you purchase the stamps and dies as the Prized Peony bundle, you save 10%
The big, beautiful flower for this Peony Garden Suite Best Wishes card was easy to assemble by working from the smallest flower to the biggest always aligning with the bottom edge. I did cut out two sets of flowers using the first as a test run for the assembly. It also helped with the volume of the flower to curl the flower petals with my bone folder before putting it all together.
I completed the card front with paper from the coordinating Peony Garden Designer Series Paper and added Silver Foil paper to work with the greys and blue.
As this card was for a bridal shower, I finished the card with another greeting from the Well Said stamp also in Seaside Spray.

Beautiful Friendship – stunning new In Colors and Flirty Flamingo
I was really looking forward to receiving the Beautiful Friendship stamp set and indulging in all the card making this set demands. Whether you stamp a single image or create an entire background like I did on this card, you know you are going to be making gorgeous cards.
Flirty Flamingo ink was added to four of the new In Colors for 2019-2021 – Pretty Peacock, Terracotta Tile, Seaside Spray and Rococo Rose – to make this vibrant stamped piece.
These colors are definitely new favourites but it is hard to choose just one. I love using them all together as they coordinate so well. And Flirty Flamingo fit right in.
And speaking of favourites, I have to recommend the Stitched Nested Labels. There are so many ways to use these new dies. As a greeting, a background for a stamped image or even as a layering piece for the card. Or all three together.
Beautiful Friendship, Set of 13 stamps, $28.00
I added a few Pretty Peacock Faceted Dots to the card as a little bit extra. The 2019-2021 In Color Faceted Dots include 18 dots in each of the five new colours for a total of 90. I am using them so much on so many cards and projects.

Want to Inspire? You can with the Silhouette Scenes and Sweet Silhouettes Dies bundle.
I was so drawn to this set of dies – especially the dandelion – and couldn’t wait to start making cards with the Sweet Silhouette dies. I also really like the uniqueness of the included sentiments – inspire, adventure, forever.
When planning this card, it was a no brainer to design this card around Poppy Parade as it features in the colour-washed background I used from the coordinating designer series paper called See A Silhouette.
And the card needed a little something more. So, the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder was used to create a background with lots of texture for the layering piece on the bottom of the card.
I also wanted to make sure the dandelion really was the focus of the card by creating a frame with the Stitched Rectangles dies. If you don’t own these already, you really should. This set of dies can be used to create lots of layering pieces as well as frames and more.
All that was left was to embellish the card. I coloured a few Basic Rhinestones with the Basic Black Dark Blends marker and added various sized rhinestones to the card.
Ready to Inspire? You can with the Silhouette Scenes and Sweet Silhouettes Dies. Buy them as a bundle and save 10%.
See A Silhouette Bundle includes the Silhouette Scenes stamp set and Sweet Silhouettes Dies – 10 stamps and 5 dies

To adhere the cut out “inspire” to the card, I used the Multipurpose Liquid glue. Place a few small dots on the back of the word varying the placement so all the edges will adhere. Allow the glue to rest for a minute or so. Then gently add the greeting to the card and allow to dry.

Don’t you love all the layers that make up this card?
I recommend cutting out the frame first from your cardstock and then positioning the cardstock into the embossing folder to add the detail to the frame.
Behind the greeting, I added texture with one of the included stamps and Crumb Cake ink. I wanted to background image to be subtle so I stamped off once or twice onto scrap paper.
I added a punched out daisy made with the Medium Daisy punch to the card as a corner element and embellished with sequins and faceted dots.
The card uses Rococo Rose and Terracotta Tile in addition to Crumb Cake. The new In Colors are quickly becoming favourites and are all featured in the Woven Threads Designer Series Paper package.

Looking for a stamp set to make cards that celebrate the men in your life? Create masculine cards with the Geared Up Garage stamp set and Garage Gears Dies.
For this card, I decided to use the new 2019-2021 In Color, Seaside Spray. I included a gingham pattern from the coordinating 6″ x 6″ 2019-2021 In Color Designer Series Paper. This paper pack has 4 different designs in all five new In Colors. To make the Seaside Spray the focus of the card, I stayed with neutrals – Basic Black, Smoky Slate, Basic Gray and Whisper White – for the rest of the card.
The background of the card was made with a few stamped images and gears cut out with the coordinating Garage Gears dies.

You’ll always have the right words with the Hand-Lettered Prose dies. Use a single letter or a whole word to create cards and phrases that express what you want to say. You can also purchase the words as a bundle with the Praiseworthy Prose stamp set.
I really wanted the letters to stand out so I added a gold foil layer behind the paper with dimensionals. The added height creates a shadow for bolder letters.
Think of all the word combinations you can add to your cards with this set of dies.

Flipping through the catalog for the first time, I was immediately drawn to the Noble Peacock Suite. I’m not sure if it was the rich colors or the peacock or the amazing accessories but I knew I wanted to order this bundle first.
This suite includes the Royal Peacock Bundle with stamp set and dies, Beads & Baubles Embossing Folder, Designer Series Paper, Foil Sheets, Old Olive/Pretty Peacock Reversible Ribbon and new Rhinestones. Wow! So many options to create card, home decor, scrapbook pages and 3D projects.
And for perfect placement of the feathers, I recommend using the Stamparatus.
I think the Noble Peacock Specialty Designer Series Paper was what first caught my eye when I was looking through the new catalogue. I love the rich jewel-tones in this pack – Blueberry Bushel, Old Olive and Pretty Peacock – and the various foil accent designs on the papers,
For this card, I added a couple of products not included in the bundle, the Stitched Nested Labels Dies and Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends. If you are collecting the Blends, there are six new color sets available now.
I started this card by stamping the peacock in Pretty Peacock and then adding the stamped feathers layer in Granny Apple Green. I colored the body of the peacock with the light Pretty Peacock Blend. And then cut out the image with the Detailed Peacock Dies. I adhered the stamped image to a Stitched Nested Label cut out with Dimensionals.
The card itself is Pretty Peacock with a Whisper White cardstock layer embossed with the Beads & Baubles Folder. The next layer is the Old Olive DSP cut 5″ x 2″.
I added the Reversible Ribbon and Rhinestones as embellishments before adhering the card together and attaching the greeting.

Is the Daisy Lane Bundle on your wish list? It really should be.
The daisies are made from Purple Posy cardstock – one of five new In Colors for 2019 – 2021 introduced with the new catalogue. The Daisy Lane stamp set is a set of 9 including a large and medium daisy as well as 4 greetings and additional floral and greens. And the bundle includes the new Medium Daisy punch.
For more creative options, add the larger Daisy Punch to your order if you don’t already own it. One of my favourite cards features this punch. See the card here.
The stunning doily-like background was made with the Stitched Lace Dies. Cut out a card sized piece with the lace die and then use it as a card front, create a complete card or trim down the lace to single, double or triple ribbons with the included edge. This card features two rows cut from the die. I have used this die quite a bit and recommend it.
To complete the card, I added a greeting stamped in Crumb Cake which is the same colour I used on the daisies. A Linen Thread bow goes across the card. The center of the daisies are Gold Faceted Gems and the leaves are punched with the Leaf Punch in Pear Pizzazz.
Each daisy is made with three layers of punched cardstock. The bottom layer is unstamped and is mostly to add stability and depth. The top two layers are first and second generation stamped images. For this card, I alternated the two generations on each daisy for a subtler and more muted flower.
A first generation image is stamped directly after inking up the stamp. A second generation image is stamped without re-inking the stamp and is, of course, lighter than the first stamped image. You can continue with third generation and beyond depending on the look you want.
